I just saw tvs most beloved alien reduced to peddling collect phone calls and theft... ALF as you may kno whim has taken on quite the bad boy role over the past year or so... I saw him on the Cindy Margolis show on E entertainment television and he was talking smack, pimpin hoes, and throwin down on turn tables, and yet here he is on an x jocks (terry bradshaw I believe) couch hocking 1-800-collect....

and then he attempted to steal a dollar from what appeared to be his friend...

My poor lost friend will you never find your way...

He was hungry too! And bradshaw wouldn't let him eat the kitty. What happened to Alf. He used to be on top of the world. :( I guess it is tough growing old for stars like him.

Yeah, all those 80s and to some degree, 90s stars are now peddling for 1-800-Collect and 1-800-CALLATT. If you recall, they had Christopher Lloyd reprising his role as a taxi driver(1970s show Taxi) and telling his fares about 1-800-Collect.

I thought that telephone commercial was humorous and it was nice to see Alf again.

Yeah, this is likely why ALF is stooping to such lows. Most people got sick of ALF in the 80s, and many people who remember him from that era still hate him.

I rather liked that show though, live action with a Muppet named ALF as the lead character. Funny, funny show. The cartoon sucked though, if I remember correctly.
